Abstract

Alloy 718 nozzle component was manufactured by hot forging and electron beam welding process. In this process, 718 billets produced in domestic company were used and evaluated. Before performing industrial scale hot forging, small size hot compression tests were carried out under various process conditions and then microstructural evaluations were analyzed. Using the results, FEM simulations were performed in order to optimize the hot working process. After hot working, forged work-pieces were machined and welded by electron beam. Final nozzle components were heat treated and their microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated.
